Abstract
This paper deals with discovering M2M overlay entities in
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) service networks. The eXtensible
Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) is used as a basic
building block for the M2M communication. XMPP does not
offer mechanisms for discovering unknown entities from
unknown contacts, and this paper's goal is to provide a
protocol enabling this. The presented protocol does this
by using asynchronous remote procedure calls (RPCs),
unicast messages and friend-to-friend type of
communication. The paper proposes new XMPP subscription
statuses to enable exchange of roster items in the M2M
overlay entity discovery protocol without compromising
privacy, and presents the protocol for discovering
unknown M2M overlay entities from unknown M2M overlay
entities.
